Pros

- Time Off (PTO) - Desk Space - Paid License (Adjuster)

Cons

Hands down, Allstate was one of the most toxic environments I have worked in. I would never suggest any person to apply to Allstate if you truly care about your mental health, quality of life, and value of your talents. Allstate is a large company that will eventually either get bought out, or go out entirely. There is zero job security as they do not care about their policy holders. The goal is to assist the insured and claimant as quickly as possible with minimal contact and payout. Their Quick Foto Claim process creates delays and headaches. Yet management pushes this as their manager's manager's manager pushes it further. Your word will mean NOTHING. You WILL be overworked to the point where you will feel guilt at the end of the day. Training is minimal -- you basically train yourself while getting reprimanded along the way as you learn things you have done were processed incorrectly. There is no solid, established training program. Allstate WILL throw you to the wolves. You are worth more than the garbage pay -- what they expect is out of the range of salary and benefits. Which reminds me, the benefits are non-existent minus the time off they give. Do yourself a favor and find a job where you will be valued and cared about. In the long run, this is the best option. Chances are, you will either be fired, go through a layoff, or be part of the high percentage of turnover.

Pros

PTO and that's literally it.

Cons

Allstate does not provide merit increases to their employees anymore. The pay is based on Market Research. If you're being competitively paid for your position based on the market salaries in your region, then you're not eligible for a raise at the end of the year. Gross incompetence at the executive level. They do not listen to their front line on the ground. Making decisions that sound good on paper but had they discussed with middle management in local offices executives would realize the changes would not yield the desired result. Lack of support and staffing. Too often in multiple departments there is a gross lack of workers. Superiors demanding huge results with no resources to assist the employee in realizing those results. Employees are setup to fail which helps superiors justify the just adequate PDS "production" rating at the end of the year. NO Work Life Balance. This goes hand in hand with the large amount of work expected by the employee. To often do employees work an excess amount of overtime just to keep up and are not compensated. It is gross exploitation of the employee. Allstate Largo, FL has very serious problems and I do not recommend anyone to work in that office especially in the Property department. I was an employee at Allstate for 7 years. I left the company in good standing and without any negative marks throughout my tenure. In the beginning it was great but the past 3 years have progressively gotten worse each year. With no light at the end of the tunnel so to speak.
